Can't I view thumbnails in Vista?

I can only view icons, list, details and tiles. Why can't I see thumbnails
like in previous versions?

Re: Can't I view thumbnails in Vista?

In Windows Explorer, click on "Organize" - "Folder and Search Options" -
"View" tab
uncheck "[ ] Always show icons, never thumbnails"
Apply
OK

Hi Robert

Go to the Start Menu - Control Panel - Folder Options - View - Files and Folders - Uncheck 'Always show icons, never thumbnails'

Let us know if that rectifies your problem.

Kind regards

Neil
